The 2008 Russo-Georgian Conflict might seem like nothing more but a messed-up conflict due to the breakup of the USSR, but it was one of the many times the world came close to WWIII and subsequently, Nuclear Armageddon. This scenario will cover the days following The Great Armageddon - August 9, 2008

For those who don't know what it is, the Russo-Georgian War was a 5-day shooting war from August 7 to 12, 2008. It happened because Abkhazia & South Ossetia got upset and asked Russia for help, and Putin just straight-up invaded Georgia. However, this timeline explores a darker outcome, one where this conflict turned nuclear.
